Life’s as kind as you let it be.
from Charles Bukowski’s A Favor for Don. (via gokiburi)
a series of small victories
and large defeats.
: The Laughing Heart | Charles Bukowski
your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
(via lilabird)
The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth by Charles Bukowski
if I suffer at this
typewriter
think how I’d feel
among the lettuce-
pickers of Salinas?
I think of the men
I’ve known in
factories
with no way to
get out-
choking while living
choking while laughing
at Bob Hope or Lucille
Ball while
2 or 3 children beat
tennis balls against
the wall.
some suicides are never
recorded.
-Charles Bukowski
